  Clothing

Recon is an ability in Splatoon. Recon is exclusive to Clothing as a main ability.

Splatoon

When entering the spawn point, Recon users can see their opponents on the Gamepad. Players also will be able to see what weapon the opponent is using. As of 2.6.0, Recon's effects continue for about 3 1/2 seconds (1 3/4 seconds with Cold Blooded) after leaving the spawn point.

This ability is found as the main ability only on Clothing, so other abilities only found on clothing are mutually exclusive with it, meaning that they cannot be worn together. Those three being Ninja Squid, Haunt, and Cold Blooded. And because players must wear the Splatfest Tee during Splatfests, those abilities cannot be used during those events.
